#AIFWAW17

Unlike the West which is embracing mottled and scruffy, and with Gucci blurring the lines between the two genders, men in India still prefer monochromes and a smattering of grey, though Abhishek Patni brought ‘in’ the outdoors with his parkas and faux fur lining

Abhishek Paatni’s enterprising designs for Nought One and Zero highlight the growing opportunity for designers in Indian menswear. He is all set to present his new collection—which merges streetwear with military-inspired clothing and promises to breathe life in corduroy

No, this is not an homage to David Gilmour of Pink Floyd and his band of socio-political music, but maybe somewhere it is… as day one at AIFW went back to its roots and kind of said that handlooms are really cool inching their way into young women’s hearts as much as slinky gowns…
